Time ManagementOverviewGetting '
more results with
less effort' is a goal we often hear people aspiring to. More often
than not however, these same people never seem to have enough time! This
course explores the fundamental reasons behind this and introduces a
number of tools & techniques that can be applied back in the workplace in
an effort to
'work smarter not harder'.
ObjectivesBy
the end of this course, you will be able to:
-
identify the common time wasters and develop strategies for dealing
with them
-
develop a personal strategy for coping with work demands
-
turn meetings into valuable events rather than practical alternatives
to work
-
identify the activities that are key to your success
-
appreciate the value of delegation
To support the achievement of the above, you will have the opportunity to
practise and develop your practical skills using a number of small group,
paired and individual exercises. You will also be encouraged to develop
a
personal action plan to support your continued learning back in the
workplace.
